SCOTTS VALLEY, CA, March 22, 2016 — West Corporation, a leading provider of technology-enabled communication services, today announced its SchoolMessenger school community engagement platform, products and staff will be rebranded as West’s Education group.

Since SchoolMessenger was acquired by West in 2014, its trusted services have been expanded and enhanced by West’s subsequent acquisitions of SchoolReach and SharpSchool. Now, all of the SchoolMessenger solutions are part of the Education group of services within West.

The Education group will continue to have its offices, staff, and industry-leading support operations in Scotts Valley, California; Toronto, Canada; and St. Louis and Joplin, Missouri.

“The new Education group reaffirms West’s commitment to the education market and to the schools we work with,” said Robert Iskander, general manager, Education. “Customers will now see the West logo and name more often as part of the SchoolMessenger product family that they rely upon every day, backed by the same people they have trusted for years.”
